If I take my birth control around the same time every day, will it still work?

I know it's a pretty strict rule that you must take it at the same time every day, but does that mean at the same EXACT time (like if you take it at 7:30, then it has to be exactly at 7:30) or around the same time, like night or afternoon. My mom told me it was fine if I took it around the same time, like at night. Lately I've been off by an hour or so, and I had sex on friday (he came in me). Do you think I'll be okay?If I take my birth control around the same time every day, will it still work?
Doctors just want you to take them at the same time of day for the best protection. Doesn't mean you have to at the same EXACT time.


You should be fine. Ive missed by an hour plenty of times and Im not pregnant. But if you worry, you should go to the doctor.If I take my birth control around the same time every day, will it still work?
You are fine, I take mine every day at the same hour, but it is okay for you to be even seven hours late as long as get right back on track. I have even taken one eleven hours late, the worst that can happen is is you take it too late you will get a thick period after you missed your pill, but it is all fine.
You should really try to take it around the same time. It doesn't have to be super exact, but it should be around the same time frame each time. I take mine at 11pm... just set an alarm on my cell phone and take it when that goes off. It's not hard.
I am so off about mine! I take mine at 5 pm one day and then 10 pm the next and it still works fine for me, although I'm not using it to prevent pregnancy. An hour is fine. You're fine.
notif the damage is already done
just around the same time like when you wake up, or when you go to sleep not hour and min
Why not just pull out? It's not that hard. I don't get it? Why risk it anyways?
